Larry 150 Snatch from CrossFit East Sac on Vimeo.

Happy 50th Birthday from all of us at CrossFit East Sacramento!  I speak for all of us when I say how impressive you are as an athlete!  You are the epitome of what CrossFit can do for a person if they are willing to put in the work!  

Larry has been with us since we opened and trained with Travis prior to that.  He shows up 30 min early and leaves 30 min later than anyone else!  Take a look at this video and learn from someone who continuously works on improving his overall game while many of us contine practicing what we are already good at!  "If I could be like Larry!"

    Happy Birthday!
    If I am going to be in that kind of shape when I am 50, I better get working on it.
    I am glad I won’t have to compete against you next year at the NorCal 40s!!!!

  12. Happy Birthday Larry! You are a badass!!!

  13. Bryan Turner

    I’d like to be like Larry, but I’m sure as hell happy I’m not 50!….yet. Larry, no matter what, you will always be a Father figure to me. 1/2 way to 100 years old and still kicking ass in the gym is pretty bad ass.

  14. Brooke

    Happy Birthday Larry! I know you probably hear this all the time but, nice snatch!

  15. brother mike

    Almost 47,000 athletes have signed up for the Open this year with almost 5,000 signing up yesterday. Last year 26,000 competed. This is going to be HUGE!!!!

  20. 47,000 people! Let the games begin.

  21. Larry

    Thanks everybody! Looking forward to seeing all of you on Saturday. That would be Thursday for you Bryan. BTW I think you misunderstood when your wife mentioned father fiqure…she said “Larry is the father…go figure” Ha! And happy birtday to Scott…And Brooke I don’t hear it as often as you do!

  22. Joan

  24. John Michelmore

    Happy Birthday guys! Larry, you are definitely GAMES material!

  25. brother mike

    Three hours til WOD one is announced . . .

  26. brother mike

    Less than two hours til WOD 1 is announced. . .
    They should just make today a holiday.

  27. brother mike

    One hour til WOD #1 is released . . .
    How about a row WOD?

  28. Eileen D

    Happy Birthday, Larry! Another impressive showing!!
    And Happy Birthday, Scott!

  29. Thanks for the Birthday wishes everybody.
    Now let’s get ready to rumble! 15 minutes.

  30. brother mike

    Is anyone surprised that the open wod is late?

  31. brother mike

    SWEET:
    7 minutes AMRAP burpees.

  32. dawn

    Burpees? Did I read that right? Fuck. I love burpees.I mean slurpees.

  33. John Michelmore

    But, note that the burpees include a two-hands touch to an object at a height 6-inches over your reach. That probably won’t be abused by some out there….

  34. I just DNF’d the Open.

  35. Everyone should check Thier WOD journal for October 11, 2011. Our workout was 100 burpees for time.

  36. brother mike

    Matt- I think that was 1 hand touch.

  37. What’s a burpee? Hahahaaha. Just kidding.
    MattP: for foundations, it was 75 burpees. Which I think I did in about 7 minutes. That was on a 4 inch plate too.
    Anyway I guess I can do 75 burpees.

  38. Scott, shoot for 85. Figure out how many you need to do per minute and just start right on that pace from the get go. Starts off doable for a while, then you gut it out for a few.

  39. 91 beats Kaite Hogan. That would be a huge accomplishment.

  40. brother mike

    Mens leaderboard currently at 134 burpees.

  41. Lisa M.

    Happy Birthday Larry and Scott!
